Yes, Bulenox pays. Independent traders posted dated payout confirmations as recently as late August 2026, and the operation has a verifiable five and a half year history rather than a marketing claim…

Payout policy

How a payout works depends on which account produced the profit. Across all of them, the first $10,000 paid out to a trader is kept in full, counted once per trader across every Fast Track and Master account. After that the split is 90% to the trader and 10% to Bulenox, applied when the payout is transferred.

  • Master Account. Requires 10 completed trading days, a minimum request of $1,000, the Safety Threshold Reserve and the consistency rule. Payouts are processed once a week on Wednesdays, and a request must be in by 11:59 PM CT on Friday to make the following Wednesday. A further 10 trading days are needed for each later payout. The first three payouts are capped by account size, from $1,000 on a 25K account to $2,000 on a 150K; after the third there is no cap.
  • Safety Threshold Reserve. An amount that must remain above the starting balance after a payout, ranging from $1,600 on a 25K account to $4,600 on a 150K. The balance must cover both the reserve and the requested amount.
  • Fast Track. No minimum trading days. The first payout needs the account size profit goal, later cycles need new profit counted from the balance at the start of that cycle. The minimum request is $1,000.
  • Momentum Master. Each cycle needs at least five qualifying profitable days, which do not have to be consecutive. A qualifying day is a completed day with net profit after commissions of at least $100 on a 25K account, rising to $250 on a 150K.
  • Processing. Fast Track and Momentum requests submitted before 12:01 PM CT Monday to Friday are ordinarily processed the same day. Weekends, banking holidays and compliance checks can extend that.
  • What blocks a payout. Falling short of the consistency rule, breaching a risk threshold, a request that would bring the balance to or below the drawdown threshold, or incomplete identity, tax and payment verification.

Payouts are sent by ACH, wire transfer or PayPal. Funded traders are treated as independent contractors and file their own taxes.

Commissions

Trading costs

A commission is charged on every market; the per-lot figures are below.

  • Indices$2.09 per side on E-mini index futures (ES, NQ, RTY, EMD, YM); $0.61 per side on the Micro E-mini contracts (MES, MNQ, M2K, MYM)
  • FX$2.36 per side on standard currency futures (6A, 6B, 6C, 6E, 6J, 6M, 6N, 6S); $0.50 per side on E-micro FX (M6A, M6B, M6E)
  • Metals$2.31 per side on Gold (GC), Silver (SI), Copper (HG) and Platinum (PL); $0.76 per side on E-micro Gold (MGC)
  • Energy$2.26 per side on Crude Oil (CL), Natural Gas (NG) and RBOB Gasoline (RB); $1.96 on E-mini Crude (QM); $1.26 on E-mini Natural Gas (QG); $0.76 on Micro Crude (MCL)
  • Crypto$2.76 per side on Micro Bitcoin futures (MBT); $0.46 per side on Micro Ether futures (MET)
  • Other Commodities$2.86 per side on grains and livestock (ZW, ZS, ZM, ZL, HE, LE, GF)

Commissions are all-in rates charged per side, meaning once on entry and again on exit for each filled contract. They are included in the balance, profit and loss, and every risk calculation, so they count against the drawdown and the daily loss limit.

  • Equity index futures. $2.09 per side on the E-minis (ES, NQ, RTY, EMD, YM) and $0.61 on the Micro E-minis (MES, MNQ, M2K, MYM).
  • Currency futures. $2.36 per side on the standard contracts and $0.50 on the E-micros.
  • Metals. $2.31 per side on Gold, Silver, Copper and Platinum, $0.76 on E-micro Gold.
  • Energies. $2.26 per side on Crude Oil, Natural Gas and RBOB Gasoline, $1.96 on E-mini Crude, $1.26 on E-mini Natural Gas and $0.76 on Micro Crude.
  • Grains and livestock. $2.86 per side.
  • Crypto futures. $2.76 per side on Micro Bitcoin and $0.46 on Micro Ether.

Two charges sit outside the commission table. Exchange market data is included at no cost for traders who declare non-professional status; traders who declare professional status pay a monthly exchange data fee for CME, CBOT, NYMEX and COMEX. Connecting to Rithmic through a third-party API or composite software adds $100 per month. A Master Account itself carries a one-time activation fee and no monthly subscription.

Trading rules

What Bulenox lets you do

Across all 24 plans, as recorded programme by programme.

  • News tradingAllowed on every plan
  • Copy tradingAllowed on every plan
  • Expert advisors (EAs)Allowed on every plan
  • Weekend holdingNot allowed on any plan
  • Overnight holdingNot allowed on any plan

Bulenox trades CME Group futures through a Rithmic paper-trading environment, and the same trading conditions apply on Qualification, Master, Fast Track and Momentum accounts.

  • Session. The trading day runs from 5:00 PM CT to 4:00 PM CT the following day. Weekends and public holidays are not counted as trading days.
  • No overnight or weekend positions. All positions must be closed by 3:59 PM CT. Holding a position overnight is prohibited.
  • News trading is allowed. There are no blackout windows around CPI, FOMC, NFP or any other release, no forced position closing and no penalty. The only limits are the drawdown and the contract limit.
  • Bots, algorithms and trade copiers are permitted, provided the tool is built by the trader for their own personal use. Commercial, shared, rented or publicly distributed automation is not allowed. Connecting through a third-party API or composite software carries an extra $100 per month.
  • Position size. Each account size carries its own contract limit and several positions may be held at once. Standard and micro contracts can be traded side by side, and one standard contract equals ten micros.
  • Minimum trading days. There are none. A qualification can be completed in a single day, and a trading day is counted only when at least one trade is opened.
Consistency

Consistency rules

Every payout request is measured against a consistency rule: the best single trading day divided by the net profit of that payout cycle. The threshold depends on the account type.

  • Fast Track. A maximum of 20% for the first payout, 25% for the second and 30% from the third onwards.
  • Momentum Master. A flat 35%. The best trading day may not exceed 35% of the net profit of the payout cycle.
  • Master Account. A flat 40%, applied to every payout request against the total profit and loss for the applicable payout period.
  • Qualification stage. There is no consistency requirement while passing a Qualification or Momentum account.

Missing the threshold is not a breach and does not close the account. The payout request simply waits: keep trading at a normal position size until the percentage comes back into line.

Firm rules

Firm rules

Outside the drawdown maths, a handful of account rules decide whether an account stays open and whether it can progress.

  • Breaching the drawdown suspends the account, it does not end the relationship. A Qualification Account can be reset for $78: the balance returns to its starting value, the same account continues, and completed trading days start over. Resets are processed instantly. The alternative is to buy a new account.
  • Hitting the daily loss limit is not a violation. On End-of-Day accounts, reaching the limit disables trading for the rest of that day and trading resumes automatically at the start of the next session.
  • One profile, one Rithmic User ID. Every account a trader holds is linked to the same Rithmic User ID. Creating a second profile or using a second User ID is not permitted and may lead to suspension.
  • Account limits. Qualification Accounts are unlimited. Master-level accounts are capped at five active at once, shared across Master, Fast Track and Momentum Master in any combination, and balances, profits and drawdown limits cannot be combined between them.
  • Activation window. Once a Master activation link is issued it is valid for 7 days. If the activation fee is not paid in that window the Master Account is no longer available for activation. The clock only starts when the link is issued, not while the account waits in the queue.
  • Market data status is locked. The professional or non-professional declaration made when signing the Rithmic agreement applies for the life of the account, across the Qualification, Master and Funded stages.
  • Access period. Qualification and Momentum accounts are sold once and expire at the end of their access period. There is no recurring charge and nothing to cancel, though an account can be terminated early from the dashboard. A terminated account cannot be restored.
  • Refunds. Payments are not refundable once an account has been created and the service accessed.
